“Not Quite Gone was a deeply personal project for me. Returning to Scunthorpe with a camera felt like walking a tightrope between nostalgia and distance. I wanted to capture that quiet pull between staying and leaving the feeling of being shaped by a place you’ve outgrown but never stopped loving.

The film moves through spaces I’ve known all my life childhood streets, abandoned landmarks, forgotten corners”
